United Way Campaign nearing goal

The SFCC 2010 United Way Campaign continues with only $1,016 to go until it reaches its goal of $12,000. Currently, 88 employees have made pledges to the campaign. United Way pledge forms are available in the Community Relations and Human Resources offices.

SFCC employees may make one-time contributions in cash or by check or fulfill a pledge via a payroll deduction over 12 months. All payroll contributions will be deducted January 2010 through December 2010. As an added incentive to donating, SFCC employees who are members of FACC and contribute any amount to the SFCC Foundation and to the United Way campaign will receive a unique Panther Spirit pin.

Even if a pledge form was submitted last year, a new pledge form must be submitted again this year. Donations may be designated, specifically, for Highlands, Hardee, or DeSoto counties (even though DeSoto County isn’t part of United Way of Central Florida). Donations can be designated for a particular United Way agency of the donor’s choice, such as NuHope or the Humane Society.
